Nichole has now been able to take Atta home but he still needs to be fed through a tube every three hours.

"I am so happy he is home, it is just such a shame he is in such a bad way.

"The people who handed him in left a false name and number so I wonder if they were the ones who stole him - I don't think I'll ever know.

Nichole is mother to Ishaani, who is three and a half, and Millan, who is eight years old.

The Jindel family hand-reared the kitten as well as his brother, Casper, and sister, April, when Nichole’s husband, Giz, 32, found the trio, just hours old, in a cardboard box in a skip in Hayes last year.

April was put down at eight-weeks-old when it was discovered she had a brain tumour, but Casper and Atta had been inseparable until the kitten's disappearance.
